No, seriously. I was kidding. That’s what I was doing this afternoon. I was in the barn, helping with the kidding! Miracle (aka: Miri) divided into three pieces today. She had twins!
She had a little doeling, and a little buckling. They are totally adorable! The little female looks so feminine, with her tiny mouth and delicate features. And the little guy looks a great deal like his daddy, only lighter. You can see the Boer goat markings coming in on his face, only his face is cream colored instead of rich, dark mahogany.
They are keepers, that’s for sure! And momma is doing just fine! Her first pregnancy, and she had twins! I tried out a technique called ‘flushing’ before I bred either of the does. This is where you feed them very high quality feed and hay, and just pamper the heck out of them. After about 2 ½ months, I bred them to Nimrod. ‘Flushing’ supposedly causes the female to produce more eggs. Well, I guess it worked! Happy Birthday, ‘Willow’ and ‘Kid Karate – Chop’!
Momma checks out these strange little creatures. Now, where did they come from???

Willow says "Grandpa brought us his brand-new quartz heater to use, 'till he hooked up a heat- lamp. What a nice grandpa we have!"
The little Karate Chop has some pale markings on his face; he is trying to copy his daddy!
We have located the cafeteria!!!
Gee, our grampa is really good at holding twins! He says: "Just ask Bob and Dan!!!"
Ahhh.! This is just like basking in the sun in hawaii! Ummm...what is 'hawaii?'
